A REIGN OF TERROR.

"Crael, despotic and tyrannic are the
laws administered by England to poor,
unfortunate Ireland" These words
were spoken by an Irish patriot nearly
one hundred years ago, and are just as
applicable now as then if, the words,
s'the Tories" were substituted for
ssEngland." The edict has gone forth.
and from this time forward the Tories
will do their utmost to compel the Irish
people to ''bend the plant knee that
thrift may follow fawning." Of course,
we are told that the Crimes Act of 1887
will differ from all previous ones mas
much as it's character will be so mild as
to be coercion only in name, but if we
are not greatly mistaken it will be
found the most severe since Lord
Grey's Act in 1888. The act has been
applied to every county in Ireland, with
the exception of Antrim, but in this
county Belfast has been proclaimed.
The principal reason for the enforce
ment of the Coercion Bill is to attempt
the suppression of the Irish National
League. That this is its primary OBJ
iect can be inferred from the words Of
Mr.. Balfour in the British House of
Commons. In reply to the question Of
Mr.. Morley, what bad happened to ex-
plain the proclamation of the whole OF
Ireland, since the Government had a
short time ago assured the House that
the law was as well obeyed in some
parts of Ireland as in any part OF Great
Britain, Balfour said he had no reason
to change his opinion that districts OF
Ireland were as peaceable as districts
of Great Britain; but what the Gov
ernment had done was not to apply the
whole Crimes Act to Ireland generally,
but only the subsections, dealing with
unlawful assemblies and the obstruc-
tion of police. MIR. Sexton asked
whether the executive, before issuing
the proclamations, distinguished the
counties where it was necessary to pre-
vent crime from those where it was ne
cessary to punish crime. Mr.. Balfour
said that in every case in which a
county had been specially proclaimed
the proclamation had been issued be
cause the Government believed in the
actual existence of crime or intimida-
tiOn.
From this it will be seen that the
main object of the application of the
Crimes Bill is, first to make it appear
that the Irish National League is an IL
legal organization and eventually wipe
it out of existence altogether. How
far they will succeed remains to be
seen. The fight between the Govern
ment and the League will lead to the
application of the bill in it's entirety,
for the Irish people know well that in
the League lies all their hope for future
success. Without it they would be un-
able to maintain the uneven fight with
Irish landlordism and murderous Tory
ism; consequently they will defend
every principle enunciated by it until
the end is reached. The storm is
gathering, the movements of the Tories
are ominous, and we may expect that
Ireland, now with a more creditable
criminal record than either England or
Scotland, will, in the course of a few
weeks. be in a chaotic state Of terror.

MANAGER PALMER's BIG SHOW.

Manager Palmer has hit upon an
idea that is creditable to himself, and
one that will be thoroughly appre-
ciated by the labor organizations of the
Northwest. 1t was suggested to the
worthy manager that the Exposition
should be opened with grand parade,
etc. After considering the thing over
for time he came to the conclusion
that as the knights of Labor held their
convention here in October 1t would be
better to defer the parade until that
month, and extend an invitation to the
delegates who will be present on the 0c-
casion, together with local labor organ
izations, to participate in grand labor
parade. Mr.. j. P. McGaughey, with
whom G.. M. w. Powderly has left all
the arrangements for the convention,
has had some conversation with Man
ager Palmer, in which he expressed a
desire to have the grand opening cere-
monial sake place in October 8. Over
1000 delegates will be present. Mr..
Powderly will make formal address,
and there will be the formal speeches Of
welcome. The hall will be altogether
the best place for the opening, and after
that the convention will meet in the
new knights of Labor hall. Mr.. Palmer
has been authorized to make the neces-
sary arrangements with Mr.. Nc
Gaughey.
Another feature of the Exposition
will be the setting of the machinery in
motion. Last year Mrs. Cleveland
pressed the button which started the
machinery, and this year it is proposed
to have ex-Premier Gladstone perform
the same act. 1t is not quite so easy of
accomplishment. Although telegraph
communication may readily be had,
the current through a submarine cable
is not so powerful as that oyer an ordin.
ary telegraph wire. Instead of clicking
off messages, the electric communi:a-
tion through the cable is made by
means of sparks in dark chamber, and
it is doubtful if the current is suf.
GENTLY strong, even with relays, to lift
a sounder. But the Exposition people
will undoubtedly surmount this diff
Guilty, and it need not surprise any one,
therefore, if on August 81. Hon. Will
liam E. Gladstone will press button
in England, and the wires will carry
the pressure beneath the ocean and
over a continent to America, to set the
Exposition machinery in motion.

About the Bankrupt Law.

Editor Enterprise, Sir: We de-
sire through you to call the atten-
ton of our Legislature to the pres
ent infamous bankrupt law of the
State; a law that is disgrace to
these that got it mp, to the Legisla-
ture that passed it, to the Governor
that signed it, and also to the law
yer in this city who advertised un-
der it to take any one throngi /
bankruptcy for the paltrv sum of
$50.
As consequence many young
men have injured themselves, their
standing Ia the community by tax
ing advantage IF this law to evade
the payment of their honest debts,
which In many instances scarcely
amounted To $500.
By t,us betraying the trust and
confidence reposed in them by their
fellows, they have to their own
great future disadvantage fixed up
on thems selves the indelible stain
of dishonesty aud dishonor.
La our judgment law that rem
ders bankruptcy SO easy and holds
forth such cheap Inducements to
raseality ought to be repealed at
once.
While we know that all nations
have had bankrupt laws, we cannot
AMI do not recognize the moral
right of any Legislative body what
soever to pass them To illustrate:
A. owes B $1,000. Now, there Is
ne power on earth that can absolve
A. from this Obligation but B. him
self.
A short time since we had a Uni
ted States Jaw that absolved men
from the payment of all of their
just debts and liabilities. In our
judgment this law confieted most
seriously with clause in the Con-
stitution prohibiting Congress FROM
passing law impairing the obllga-
ton of contracts.
As general thing creditors are
disposed to deal literally with debit
ors, If debtors show an inclination
to do right, and hence we think
that the law of ontlawry affords the
debtsr ample protection as against
the creditor, and therefore we zee
no use for bankrupt laws at all.

Suicide at TuseOrGra.

Miss Sarah Arnsdale, a resident
of Winnemucca, committed suicide
at Tuscarora on Sunday, January
%, by taking laudanum. The Sill
yer State says: Her betrothed,
the late II. M. Henkel, to whom
she was to have been married, was
taken i'll with pneumonia in the
latter part of October and the
disease proved fatal in few days.
The unexpected death of her aft
anced husband preyed upon her
mind to such an extent that she at
tempted to end her troubles and ex-
istance BY taking laudanum here a
few weeks ago, and almost sue
ceeded. Upon her recovery she
went TO Tuscarora, where her par
ents formerly resided, to visit
friends, hopes being entertained
that change of scene and assocl-
ates would have a beneficial effect
upon her mind. The sequal shows,
however, that her grief was incen
solable. in fact, amounting to in
sanity, and that nothing this side
of the grave could assuage 1T.

THE IMPoRTETs IRISH.
what the Gazette has to say

what the 'Gazetfe' has to Say
The Reno Gazette puts it 10 this
way:
The Democratic minority In the
Legislature leaves no stone unIurn-
ed to antagonize the Democratic
National Administration and in
crease the prejudice it already has
to the injury of Nevada. The eau
Gus resolution against the coRirma-
ton of General Irish showed bad
taste and poor Judgment. The talk
about home rule has been the only
political stock 10 trade of lot of
small politicians who had no other
recommendation in the struggle for
places far beyond their reach and
it figures very little in General
Irish case. The fact is taat cit
izen of the United States is at
home in every State Ia the Union.
and as soon as be establishes him
self, and the six months or a year
passes which has been found neces-
sary, for police regulations, he is as
much a citizen as the oldest resi-
dent and under the Constitution of
the United States he is entitled to
all the rights and privileges. That
is what the war was fought for
General Irish has come to stay and.
is able to live without off ice, but
he is a good man for the place and
will be worth a great deal to Ne
vada whether In public or private
life. His long experience in new
countries will be of value In the
next ten years of rapid develop
ment here. The State of Nevada
needs few thousand just such i'm
migrants as Mr.. Irish.

The Real Issue Understood.

The canvass in this State is beginning to
define ITSELF All parties realize that it is
not question Of tariff, or revenue reform,
or distribution of public moneys, bat that
it is The simple issue of Mahoneism. Colonel
Brady, whom his great friend, the General,
offered up with his own hands; Ex-Gov-
ernor Cameron, whom Malone has thrust
aside; Senator Riddleberger, whom he has
treated With contempt; General Wickham,
who is too Independent for Malone; the
Lewiaes, ghis aFs not used to having mas
tiers over them; and many other leading Be-
publicans understand this as we'll as we do,
and resent it with energy. All these, and
scores aud scores of others, have bitter
memories of wrongs, affronts, or Injuries
which they have sustained at the hands of
their eup.3dam friend and former associate.
They Slali5e that the issue is as we have
defined it, aud they understand, nd DOUBT,
that tliere Gan be no healthy growth of their
party as long as General Malone stands
like Political Upas tree in the midst of
the pasiure-land from which they are ex-
cluded by that simple fact, for where he
kopyishes they must decay. So far as our
party is concerned the nature of the con-
test is perfectly understood. We have to
fight against all that is implied in Malone
ism. We have to dispute with him the con-
troll of the State. and to defend, in point of
fact, tl:a interests of all classes of our So
ciety, both white and eolorsd, for under
Mahones rule we should soon be divided
into two opposite camps, and the better class
of oolored people realize the fact. With the
issue thus defined, with Gen. Malone well
known to all within our borders, and with
lively sense of the danger to the Common
wealth, we have no doubt of Democra tic
victory in November; and Mr.. Barbour, our
Carnot, is already organizing this with his
halitqal zeal, patriotism, and unselfish de-
votion to'ais public dpty.-Noyok Land
mark.
